XF 2.2 Use groups changing

[Faust]

Hi.

I've just trying to set new user group for new members which will need manually posts to be approved.

All worked, but for some reason it's getting promoted to secondary use groups, not primary. And I'm slightly confused.

Because I also set a notice to be shown only for non verified members, but it does show to verified members too.

Any advice?

That is correct.

The primary is always Registered.

Al others are secondary.

Change the notice criteria to prevent it showing to those you don't wish to see it.

The criteria has been set to be shown only for new members who haven't been promoted to a new user group.

So slightly confused how should I set that criteria.

Without seeing the criteria it's impossible to know.

You likely need to use 'is not a member of promoted group'.

I've only set the criteria:

User is a member of user group:
Registered

 

[Paul B]

Which covers everyone who has ever registered.

Registered

Wrong way round

Try this: (assuming your promoted group is "OK to post")



Also tick User is logged in unles you want it to show also to guests

I want the notice to be shown only for members who haven't been promoted to a different user group.

You likely need to use 'is not a member of promoted group'.

 

[Faust]

Do I need to tick all user groups apart from the one I want the notice to be shown?

 

[Paul B]

Remove all other criteria and just check that one for that specific group.

All good.

I've just followed your advice from above.

But ticked all other user group apart from the one the user is member. And worked.
